3 INTRODUCTION Miami-Dade County Public Schools, in addressing the importance of physical activity in the academic process, will continue to implement recess to ensure that all children receive the updated requirements, from House Bill Recess is required in grades Kindergarten through 5 th and students will be provided at least 100 minutes of supervised, safe, and unstructured free-play recess each week. Recess MUST be scheduled for at least 20 consecutive minutes per day. Recess, while separate and distinct from physical education, is an essential component of the total educational experience for elementary aged children. Recess provides children with the opportunities to engage in physical activity that helps to develop healthy bodies and enjoyment of movement. It also allows elementary children to practice life skills such as conflict resolution, cooperation, respect for rules, taking turns, sharing, using language to communicate, and problem-solving in real life situations. Furthermore, recess facilitates improved attention and focus on learning in the classroom. According to various national organizations, recess is considered an important component of a child s physical and social development. Inactivity is further considered a major risk factor for heart disease and it is now evident that patterns of inactivity begin at the early ages. As a result of parents working outside of the home, safety issues, and other factors, growing number of children have limited time to participate in unstructured play in their neighborhoods. They spend more time watching TV, playing computer games, using their cell phone, and participating in other sedentary activities. The result of the inactivity coupled with poor nutritional habits, is that more children are overweight and obese, showing early signs of heart disease, diabetes and other serious health problems. The involvement of young children in daily physical activity during school hours is critical for their current and future health. Recess also provides the opportunity for students to develop and improve social skills. During recess, students learn to resolve conflicts, solve problems, negotiate and work with others without adult intervention. Cognitive abilities may also be enhanced by recess. Studies have found that students who do not participate in recess may have difficulty concentrating on specific tasks in the classroom, are restless and may be easily distracted. In addition, recess serves as a developmentally appropriate strategy for reducing stress. Contemporary society introduces significant pressure and stress for many students because of academic demands, family issues, and peer pressures. (National Association for Sport and Physical Education, 2001) Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 2
4 BENEFITS OF RECESS Recess serves as a necessary break from the rigors of concentrated, academic challenges in the classroom. But equally important is the fact that safe and wellsupervised recess offers cognitive, social, emotional, and physical benefits. Recess is unique from, and a complement to, physical education not a substitute for it. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention defines recess as regularly scheduled periods within the elementary school day for unstructured physical activity and play. Recess represents an essential, planned respite from rigorous cognitive tasks. Recess affords a time to rest, play, imagine, think, move, and socialize. After recess, students are more attentive and better able to perform cognitively. Recess helps young children to develop social skills that are otherwise not acquired in the more structured classroom environment. Children develop intellectual constructs and cognitive understanding through interactive, manipulative experiences. Recess promotes social and emotional learning and development for children by offering them a time to engage in peer interactions in which they practice and role play essential social skills. Through play at recess, children learn valuable communication skills, including negotiation, cooperation, sharing, and problem solving as well as coping skills, such as perseverance and self-control. Although not all children play vigorously at recess, it does provide the opportunity for children to be active in the mode of their choosing and to practice movement and motor skills.

5 GUIDELINES FOR RECESS HB 7069 and Recess Recess is supervised, unstructured playtime where children have choices, develop rules for play and release energy and stress. Recess is not a part of Physical Education. Recess may be conducted indoors or outdoors. Each district school board shall provide at least 100 minutes of supervised, safe, and unstructured free-play recess each week for students in kindergarten through grade 5. Recess must be scheduled for at least 20 consecutive minutes per day. Principals are to utilized discretion to manage recess while recognizing the academic and social needs of their student population. The District will monitor the implementation of this initiative. Documentation will be required as evidence of adherence to the recess policy. Recess Scheduling Strategy Recommendations: Schools are allowed flexibility for implementation, except for conducting recess during ELA/Reading, Interventions (Reading) and Physical Education blocks of instruction. Recess should be scheduled throughout the day to avoid safety to life concerns. Recess schedule should rotate to avoid compromising the instructional time of the same subject. Recess may be scheduled immediately before Lunch. Recess may be scheduled immediately prior to dismissal. Create a Recess rotation block, where grade levels sign up on a weekly basis for the recess block time of choice. Administration should monitor that grade levels are not scheduling recess during the same block every week interrupting the same subject throughout the year. Recess may be scheduled prior to the first block for a grade level, and utilize a teacher receiving an extra-curricular supplement to supervise. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 4
6 Things to Remember: 1. Teachers are responsible for supervising recess, not directing recess activities. Teacher should intervene, based on safety and supervision procedures, when a child s physical or emotional safety is an issue. Bullying or aggressive behavior must not be allowed and all safety rules should be enforced. 2. Recess is not a teacher s planning period. 3. Special area teachers may supervise recess, if their planning time is not compromised. 4. Teachers must have a 30-minute duty free lunch. 5. Paraprofessionals may supervise recess on an as needed basis, for short period of times and NOT on a regular basis nor as part of their duties. If they are regularly assigned to a class at Recess time they are required to assist the teacher in supervising the students. 6. Recess does not replace P.E. 7. Recess is not to be used as a reward. Students should not be denied recess as a punishment or to make up work. 8. Work hours cannot be extended to provide recess. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 5
7 GUIDELINES FOR THE INSPECTION OF PLAY AREAS To maintain student safety at all times, it is recommended that school personnel inspect the play area and playground equipment at the beginning of each day, ensuring that it is safe and ready for use. This responsibility will be assigned by the school principal and assisted by the physical education teacher(s). Daily inspection of the play area and playground equipment will include the following: Inspect play area for holes, broken glass, other objects, ants and other insects. Remove litter and debris from the student play area. Inspect playground equipment and fall zones for worn or damaged equipment and unsafe landing surfaces. Inspect fences for protruding wires. Inspect trees for broken or hanging branches. ALL NEEDED ACTION AND REPAIRS SHOULD BE REPORTED TO THE PRINCIPAL IN WRITING. BE SPECIFIC ABOUT WHAT EQUIPMENT IS IN DISREPAIR. Additional information regarding recess safety procedures can be secured from The American Association for the Child s Right to Play, Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 6
8 SUGGESTIONS FOR PLAYGROUND SAFETY AND SUPERVISION FOLLOW ALL MIAMI-DADE COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOL REPORTING PROCEDURES IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT OR ILLNESS. Report to the principal any injuries or illnesses that occurred during recess. All playing areas should be inspected daily to insure that they are free from broken glass, rocks or other safety hazards. Allow for sufficient space between playing groups. Encourage and reinforce good behavior during recess. Do not permit students to retrieve balls outside of the supervised play area, which may go into the street or other unsafe areas. No eating of any kind or chewing gum should occur during activities. In order to participate in any activity, proper footwear should be worn at all times. Teach students to stay away from animals that wander into the playing area. Maintain visual supervision at all times. Be alert at all times. Do not become distracted talking to students or other adults. Refrain from using a fence for a finish line in races or relays. Students must leave the field during thunder, lightning, or rain. Students should go inside when lawn equipment is in operation. Teach students to terminate activities when a designated signal is given. No contact sports are permitted. Equipment should be used for intended purposes. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 7
9 TECHNIQUES TO MAINTAIN APPROPRIATE BEHAVIOR Establish a routine for students when entering and leaving the playground area. Establish a starting and stopping signal for activities. Establish a routine for distributing and collecting equipment. Establish a quick way for selecting partners, teams, and groups. Make sure students are on task. Establish class rules and have them posted. Establish consequences for breaking rules. When leading students to and from the playground area stay behind students and have occasional stopping points. Always be consistent when adhering to rules and procedures. Always be in position to observe the entire class. Techniques to Decrease Inappropriate Behavior Desist a verbal statement that tells a student to stop doing something. Time-outs withdraw from group for a specified amount of time. Behavior Contract formal agreement between teacher and student. Phone call or letter to parents describing or listing specific violations. Involving the Administration as a last resort.

12 SAMPLE AGE APPROPRIATE ACTIVITIES FOR RECESS Spatial Awareness Games NAME OF ACTIVITY: HOOP TAG Have students get in groups of 4, inside a hula-hoop, held waist high. Select one group to be the taggers. When the teacher gives the signal, all groups must move simultaneously, and try to avoid the taggers. If a group is tagged, they must perform a selected locomotor movement for a prescribed number of repetitions and then return to the game. After a few minutes, select a new tagging group and play again. NAME OF ACTIVITY: CITY DRIVE Give each student a hula-hoop and have him or her stand inside. Students will pretend they are driving around the city. Students are expected to drive their cars safely, in their own personal space, without bumping into others. If they are not safe drivers, they will be asked to go to driving school and perform an exercise and then return to the game. CUES: Can you drive in a zigzag pattern? Can you drive in a curved pathway? Can you drive forward, backward, or sideways? Can you drive at a low level or a high level? Can you drive while hopping, skipping, or jumping? Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 11
13 Small Group Games FOUR SQUARE/BOX BALL Space: Hard Court Equipment: Playground balls or tennis balls Formation: Four players, one in each square, no more than six players per square Description: The player in square No. 1 is the server and must stay behind this line when serving. The serve always starts from the No. 1 square. The server serves the ball underhand to any of the other players; they must return it underhand to any other player without missing, hitting the ball wrong, or letting it go out of the four squares. Whoever causes the ball to miss goes out of the fame and a new person enters into the No. 4 square (or the person who missed goes to the No. 4 square). Everyone else moves up one square. The object of the game is to get into the No. 1 square and stay there as long as possible. CIRCLE STRIDE BALL Space: Field Area or Hard Court Equipment: Volleyballs Skills: Batting a ground ball with the hands without bending the knees. The players stand in stride position in a circle, with feet touching neighbor s feet. (No more than six students per circle). The object of the game is to bat the ball, which is placed on the ground in front of a player, in such a manner that it will pass between the feet of another player. Players may use fist or open palm. Players attempt to prevent the ball from going between their feet by batting it toward another player. Anyone who permits the ball to go out between their own feet has a point scored against them. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 12
14 Players may not bend their knees or move their feet in guarding their territory. Anyone doing so has a point scored against them. The player with the fewest points at the end of the playing time is the winner. HOP- SCOTCH Space: Hard Court Equipment: A beanbag, pebble, bottle-cap, or similar flat object Skills: Tossing at a target, hopping on one foot. It is best to play the game with a very small group, three or four, so that students do not have to wait too long for a turn. Each player should have some object to toss which he/she can identify. The first player throws the object into the number one block. If successful in getting it inside the lines, the player hops over this block and then hops into every block in order. Where there are two blocks side by side, go into both at the same time, that is, jump and land with one foot in each box. Upon reaching the end blocks, the player jumps into the air, turns about where the object is. The player then picks up the object, hops into this block and hops out. The player throws the object into the number two block, hops into another one, hops over two and Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 13
15 continues as before. Each time the player starts over, the object is thrown into the next higher block. Play continues until a miss is made by any of the following: Tossing the object so that it lands on a line or in the wrong box Stepping on a line Putting down the other foot, except in double blocks Changing feet When a player misses, except on the first toss into block one, the object is left in the block where it was when missed. The first player to get the object to the end block is the winner, provided each person in the group has had at least one turn. There are many different variations of Hop-Scotch. Any of the above or similar patterns may be used. The directions given her are the ones most commonly used by Miami- Dade County students. TETHER BALL Space: Hard Court Equipment: Tether ball attached to a rope and a 10 portable volleyball standard Skills: Batting a ball with the open hand Space: A circle 20 in diameter divided by a center line. Players stand in opposite sides of the circle. The server chooses on which side of the court to stand and the direction the server intends to serve the ball. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 14
16 The server starts the game by tossing the ball into the air and striking it with an open hand or fist. As the ball travels around the pole, the server tries to hit it again and again in the direction of the original serve. The opponent tries to hit the ball back in the opposite direction and wind the rope around the pole. The ball is not considered in play until the server s opponent hits the ball. This makes it impossible for the server to win the game by winding the ball completely around the pole before the opponent has had a chance to strike it. The player who first winds the rope completely around the pole so that the ball touches the pole above the five-foot foul line wins the game. FOULS (causing the game to go to the opponent): Hitting the ball with any part of the body other than the hands or forearms Stopping continuous play by holding or catching the ball. Touching the pole with any part of the body. Stepping out of the play zone. Throwing the ball The winner of the game becomes the server for the next game. A set consists of two games won out of three. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 15
17 Relays VARIATIONS Ball Bounce Relay- bounce a large rubber ball while walking to the turning line, then pick up the ball and run back. Overhead Relay the first person passes a ball over their head to the next person. It is passed to each player in turn. EVERYONE must handle the ball. The last person runs to the turning line, crosses it, runs back, and stands in front of their own team, behind the starting line (the team keeps moving back to make room) and passes the ball overhead to the next person. This continues until all are back in their original places. It is a foul if the ball is passed without all players having handled it. A foul disqualifies the team. Over and Under Relay the ball is rolled by the first player through the legs of the entire team. The last player in line picks the ball up and runs around the designated marked line and returns to the front of their line and continues rolling the ball until all players have finished their turn. Roller Coaster Relay three students join hands and run together to a marked line and return to the starting line. The first, Roller Coaster returning wins. Each team of three students represents a Roller Coaster. This Roller Coaster is disqualified if any of the three students separate (drop hands). The technique of turning without dropping hands must be taught before starting. One student should be designated as the leader to lead in the turning of the Roller Coaster. Driving the Pig to Market the first player in each line holds a broomstick, or Indian club. A soccer ball is placed on the starting line. On the starting signal, the first player pushes the ball (pig) with the stick or club, until the ball passes over the starting line. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 16
18 Then the player picks up the pig, carries it back, places it on the starting line, hands the club to the next person, and goes to the end of the line. This continues until everyone has driven the pig to the market and returned to place in line. Fetch and Carry Relay draw a 2 circle about 15 inches front of the starting line. 15 beyond that, draw another circle. In the nearest circle, place 3 beanbags, deck tennis rings or other objects. The first player in each line runs to the first circle and, one at a time, carries the three beanbags to the other circle and places them in it. Then that player runs back and tags the second player. The second player runs to the far circle and one at a time replaces the beanbags in the first circle. This continues until each has had a turn and returned to their own position. Put and Take Relay the first person in each line has a beanbag or other object. On the starting signal, that person runs forward and puts the beanbag on the ground just behind the goal line, then runs back and tags the second person. The second person runs forward and takes the beanbag back to the next player. This continues with alternate players putting and taking the beanbag. Obstacle Relay identical obstacles are set up in front of each team. An Indian club can be used to turn around, a rolled up mat to jump over, a ball to bounce three times, and so on. Let the students think of their own obstacles. Human obstacles are fun, too. There might be one to run around, one standing straddle whose legs the runner would crawl between, and so on. Relay for Skill Practice most of the game skills can be practiced in relay formation. This gives the students an opportunity to practice their skills and have fun at the same time. In using relays, have starting lines and finish lines clearly marked. There might be an official Marker appointed in each class to take care of such details. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 17
19 SIMPLE RELAY Space: Field Area Equipment: Cones Skills: Turning and running in the opposite direction, observing relay rules. The team lines up in single file behind the starting line. There should be the same number on each team. On the starting signal, the first person in each line runs forward, crosses a marked line or runs around a cone, turns around, runs back, tags the extended hand of the second player, and goes to the end of the line. The 2 nd person in line, then runs to the marked line or cone and back, tags the 3 rd person and goes to the end of the line. This continues until everyone is back into their starting place. When the last person returns to the line, everyone in line raises their hand to show that the team is finished. The first team finished is the winner. It is a foul: 1. For any player other than the first one to run before being tagged. 2. For a runner to turn back before crossing the finish line. One foul disqualifies a team. It is difficult for students to control the impulse to run too soon, or turn back too soon, but if the rules are enforced and the teams are disqualified every time there is a foul, the students will soon learn. RESCUE RELAY Space: Field Area Equipment: Cones Skills: Running with a partner Formation: Relay formation The 1 st person in each line runs to the goal line, then runs back and grasps the hand of the 2 nd person in line and runs with the person to the goal line. The 1 st person Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 18
20 remains there and the 2 nd person goes back and gets the 3 rd person. They run together to the goal line, then the 2 nd person goes back and gets the 3 rd person. They run together to the goal line, then the 2 nd person stays there (behind the 1 st person) while the 3 rd person goes back to get the 4 th. This continues until each player in turn has been escorted (by the person in front of them) to safety. The first team to get lined up behind the goal line is the winner. Teach the rescuer to turn before they grasp the hand of the next person, otherwise they may fail to grasp the hand which will be on the inside when they are side by side, making it difficult to run. ATTENTION RELAY Space: Field Area Equipment: Cones Skills: Running, circling a marker, stopping quickly Formation: Six or seven teams lined up in relay formation Divide the class into six or seven equal teams, no more than 5 students per team. The teams line up in relay formation. Players in each team are numbered consecutively from front to back. The leader says Attention number 5 (or any other number)! All number 5 s then run out of the line to the right, run forward and around the cone on the turning line, back to their own line, keeping to the right, around the end of the line, back into their own line. The first number 5 to come to attention in their own place gains a point for their team. Numbers should be called at random, sometimes calling a number twice in succession, so that students must pay attention throughout. Care should be taken, however, to see that all get an equal number of turns to run. The team with the most points has paid the best attention and is the winner. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 19
21 HOOP GUARD Space: Field or court area Equipment: 1 hula hoop and 3 beanbags per group Divide students into groups of three. Each group has a beanbag and hula-hoop. One player is on defense and will stand about 4-6 feet in front of the hula hoop. The other two players are on offense and each will stand side by side on a poly spot about 4-5 feet apart and 4-5 feet from the defensive player. The offensive players will pass the beanbag back and forth and attempt to score a point by throwing the beanbag, but if it drops into the hoop, the offense scores a point. When the offensive team has completed their 3 attempts, rotate positions and play again. TIC TAC TOE RELAY Divide students into groups of 9. Set up hula hoops in tic-tac-toe formation for each group. Have each group stand behind a cone next to their set of hoops. Teacher calls out various formations such as: vertical, diagonal, horizontal and all play. The first team to get in the stated formation is the winner. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 20
22 Large Group Games SHARKS Place a number of hula-hoops around the playing area. Students are scattered throughout area and performing a specified locomotor movement. When the teacher yells shark students must quickly find an island (hoop) to stand in. More than one student may stand in a hoop. As the game continues, hoops will be removed. Students work cooperatively to ensure all students safely finds a hoop space. Remove only enough hoops to keep the game safe. SHAPE UP Place circle, stars, squares, etc. of different colors in the playing area. Students spread out in playing area and perform a specified locomotor movement. On the teachers signal each student picks up a shape. The teacher will ask the students to find someone with the same shape, same color, same shape and color. HIGH FIVE RECALL Partners face each other ft. apart. Using a locomotor movement, students meet in the middle and give each other a high five and return to line. The teacher then calls out a new locomotor movement. The student must do previous movement and then new movement. This continues using various locomotor movements and repeating all calls. NUMBER HUDDLE Student stand in a scattered formation. The teacher will roll foam dice. Students will form a huddle matching the number on the dice. If dice are not available, the teacher will clap her hands and students must form groups matching the number of claps. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 21
23 PASSING BY Cones are scattered around the playing area. The challenge is to use various locomotor movements see how many different cones each student can touch in a set amount of time. Add poly spots and have students circle a cone and touch a poly spot. You may also divide the class into two groups. One group will be the tree cutters and will push the cones over while the other will be the tree planters and will put them back up. At the end of a set amount of time see which group is the winner. CAPTURE 4 Place beanbags or deck tennis rings in the center of the field. Place 8-10 hoops equal distance from the center. Line up three students behind each hoop. The first student runs to the center and retrieves an object and places it in their hoop. The next student has the option of retrieving an object from the center or from another team s hoop. Students may retrieve only one object at a time. The first team to place 4 objects in their hoop is the winner. THROW AND RUN CHALLENGE Divide class into groups of 3. Each group will choose 4 cones and a ball to throw. The 4 cones need to be set down on a line approximately feet apart. Two cones will be used for the throwers and two cones for the runner. The runner s cones should be a few feet closer. On the signal, the throwers begin to play catch, counting how many throws they make. Also at the signal, the runner counts how many times he/she can run back and forth from cone to cone. After seconds, have students stop and compare scores and rotate positions. GROUP SOCCER Divide class into groups of 3 and give each group a ball. In an area approximately 75 square feet, make four goals. The object of the game is to have each group link arms and try to score as many goals as possible in 2-3 minutes. Before a goal can be scored, all members must kick the ball. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 22
24 WINNERS COURT This game can be played using either box ball or volleyball skills, with/without a net. There are 3 teams of 6 in this game. One side of the court is the winners court and all serves will come from this side. The server will be about from the center of the court. Team 1 will start in the winners court and will serve to team 2. Team 3 will be on the sideline next to team 2. The sideline team should always be next to the receiving team because that is where the sideline team will always enter the game. If the receiving team wins the point, they will go to the winners court and serve to the team that was on the sideline. If the winners court team wins the point, they will stay and the sideline team takes the place of the receiving team. CROSSOVER Divide class into two teams. One team (the runners) begins at one end of a designated area, and the other team (the taggers) is at the other end. On the signal, the runners try to cross over the other team s end line without being tagged. Hoops are spread out in the designated area and may be used as safety hoops (no tagging). If a student is tagged before getting to a safety hoop or crossing over the end line, they must return to the starting line. Play the game for 2-3 minutes, then switch roles. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 23
25 Parachute Activities RIPPLES AND WAVES To make ripples, put the class into a circle around the parachute. Have the children grasp the edges firmly with both hands, palms down, and at waist level. Now, shake the parachute vigorously. (This is a good warm-up) To make waves, have half the class raise its end of the parachute while the other half of the class lowers its end of the parachute. Repeat with each half of the class doing just the opposite of what they did before. Variation: Students number off starting with 1. As the ripples and waves are formed, teacher calls out a number or series of numbers to run under and across to the other side. MERRY-GO-ROUND Have the children grasp the parachute with one hand and all face the same direction. On your signal, the class will go around in a circle using whatever form of locomotion you call out. On your next signal, the class will pivot in the opposite direction, re-grasp with the other hand, and continue. THE UMBRELLA Begin with the parachute flat on the floor. The class is in the stoop position grasping the edges of the parachute. On the signal, everyone without moving his or her feetstands up pulling the parachute off the floor and raising their arms to full extension overheard. The parachute will billow overhead like a big umbrella. Keep the arms extended and do not let go or walk around toward the center. POPCORN Follow the same procedures as in Ripples and Waves, except that any number of balls are thrown on top of the parachute. The bouncing balls will sound and look like popping popcorn. (This gives the arm and shoulders a good workout). Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 24
26 BATTLE BALL Use the same formation as in Ripples and Waves. Divide the class into two teams such as the Greens and the Blues. Place one ball in the center of the parachute. On the signal, Go, both teams try to shake and bounce the ball off the parachute on the other team s side. CHANGE PARTNERS Number the class off into fours ( ) and follow the instructions given for making the umbrella. When the parachute is in the full extension overhead, call any number from 1 to 4. The numbers called will change places with each other by running under the new umbrella to their new positions. When the numbers just called are in their new positions, repeat the same process again and call different numbers to change this time. Repeat until all the numbers have been called. Later, you can have the children perform different locomotor skills (skipping, jumping, hopping, etc.) as they change positions. THE FLOATING CLOUD Follow the same procedures as in making an umbrella. When the students arms are in full extension and the parachute is in the full umbrella position, on your signal the class will turn loose at the same time and let the parachute glide to the floor. THE MOUNTAIN Have the students follow the same procedure for making an umbrella. When the parachute is in its peak position, have the children pull the edges of the parachute to the floor and place their knees on the edge of the chute and hold their arms in the air. INSIDE THE MOUNTAIN Follow the same procedure for making a mountain. When the chute is in its peak position, have the class pivot in place (turn halfway around), kneel down, and pull the Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 25
27 parachute down in front of them. Keep the knees on the edge of the parachute to keep the air inside. NUMBER CHANGE Use the same procedure for making the mountain. When the children pull the parachute over them, have them sit on the edges and lean back against the parachute. The children are numbered off When a number is called, these children will change places by crawling under the parachute. PEEK-A-BOO Use the same procedure for making, inside the mountain except the children will lie on their stomachs with their heads inside the parachute and their forearms on the edges. On the signal, Out, everyone at the same time will poke their heads outside the parachute. On the signal, In, they pull their heads back in. THE WAVE To make the wave go smoothly all around the circle is a real team effort in timing and staying alert. Begin with everyone holding on to the parachute and in a stoop position. On the signal, Begin, an appointed student (A) stands with his or her arms straight overhead. The person (B) next to the appointed student begins his or her stand when (A) is halfway up. Continue this motion, person to person, all the way around the circle. This takes practice, but is a lot of fun. HOT AIR BALLOON (Mushroom) Use the same procedures as in the umbrella. As the students stand and raise their arms to full extension, they should all walk toward the center 4 to 5 steps. The parachute will billow up toward the ceiling like a big balloon. As the chute starts to deflate, they move back to their starting position. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 26
28 Jump Rope Activities INTRODUCTION Jump rope has become one of the most popular cardiovascular fitness activities. It can be performed indoors or outdoors, requires a minimum amount of space, is inexpensive and very simple to use. Rope jumping can be adapted to meet the needs of the highly skilled athletes as well as the needs of participants with some physical limitations. GENERAL JUMPING HINTS Hold rope loosely, using thumb and index finger for control. Elbows remain in at waist level with arms extended sideways at about a ninetydegree angle. The body should remain erect but flexible. Use circular wrist motion to turn the rope. Jump on the balls of the feet with a soft landing. Flat-footed landings can cause ankle, knee, and shin problems. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 27
29 BEGINNING ROPE JUMPING It is not uncommon for beginning participants to experience difficulty handling the ropes. Difficulties may involve snapping, slamming, or whipping the rope or using only one arm. There are a variety of teaching techniques that can be used to help participants experience early success. The following step-by-step progression can be used, or any one of the following procedures may help the participants. Turning the rope over the head of the jumper and catching it under the toes. Holding the rope stationary, jump forward and backward over the rope. Swinging the rope slightly, jump backward and forward over the rope. Increasing the swing gradually until a full turn of the rope is attempted. Holding the hands together on one side, swing, or twirl the rope. While swinging the rope to one side, jump in place as rope touches the floor. Turning a long rope, the turner matches the rhythm of the jumper. Standing next to a jumper, outside the rope, a participant matches the rhythm of the jumper. Jumping to the sound of the rope as it touches the surface. Exploring individuals ideas. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 28
30 SUGGESTED STUNT PROGRESSION The participant may want to try each stunt first without the rope. The participants can try the stunts with the rope when they feel they are ready (stunts are easily learned after basic skill is experienced) A teacher or skilled participant s demonstration helps when the student is told what to look for in the demonstration. The participants analyze the skill. The skill is demonstrated again. Miami-Dade County Public Schools Page 29
